The Insider's Guide to Next-Generation BPM
09/12/2006
GemStone Systems, a provider of the Enterprise Data Fabric (EDF), today introduced GemFire 5.0. Designed specifically to meet the demanding performance and scalability requirements of advanced J2EE, grid, SOA and OLTP applications, GemFire Enterprise 5.0 provides a high-performance, distributed operational data store that enables real-time operations across distributed locations.
ebizQ received the following details:
The unprecedented scalability features of GemFire Enterprise 5.0 enable organizations to manage massive data loads while guaranteeing data integrity and availability to power mission-critical applications. By enabling applications to scale transparently, GemFire Enterprise 5.0 guarantees operational reliability while preventing single points of failure and managing exceptions without widespread impact.
“Enterprises are facing the growing challenges of using disparate sources of data managed by different applications,” noted Noel Yuhanna, Forrester Research. “New technology is emerging that Forrester has coined "information fabric," a term defined as a virtualized data layer that integrates heterogeneous data and content repositories in real time. The potential benefits of this technology are so great that enterprises should develop a strategy to leverage information fabric technology as it becomes more widely available.”
As the core component of the GemFire Enterprise Data Fabric, this release combines essential components of databases, messaging and caching, providing distributed data virtualization and sharing to counter the real-world deployment challenges of complex application systems, wherein a single offending member can bring the entire system to a grinding halt. GemFire Enterprise 5.0 provides scalability along three distinct elements - data scalability, distribution scalability, and cluster/membership scalability – without compromising performance.
“SOA and grid computing projects frequently present dramatic data management challenges, requiring reliable access and delivery of data among disparate applications with minimum latency,” said Shankar Iyer, executive vice president, marketing and strategy, GemStone Systems. “The new features and improved functionality of GemFire 5.0 reliably and consistently manage data persistence and distribution across several hundreds or thousands of nodes, providing a distributed data layer to maximize deployments.”
